Much like the previous reviewer, I saw the overwhelmingly positive feedback from most and decided to give it a try. This was not a good idea as it turned out. I followed the instructions to the letter in gradually applying the product to previous acne scars, I remembered this approach from having taken medication containing Retinol in the past. To get to the point, it instantly made the area break out like wildfire, and I discontinued using the product immediately. I was honestly excited about giving this a shot to fade some minor scars, but it has completely and totally done the exact opposite of what it claims to do. Ie. Not blocking pores, not causing breakouts etc. I see there are plenty of positive experiences from using the product, and that's great. I can only speak from my own experience, however. I would definitely advise anyone thinking of using the product, who is in any way sensitive to oil, to think twice. Mine was an awful experience. Apologies for the length of this!

Hi, Thank you for your feedback and I am sorry to hear that the product did not meet your expectations. Every skin type is different and it could be that hyour skin is just not reacting well to the oil. Instead you could try the retinol serum instead. If for some reason you're not completely happy with a facetheory purchase and don't notice any visible improvement in your skin within 365 days - just email us at help@facetheory.com for a free exchange or refund. Thanks Facetheory Team

Read the reviews. Took a chance for my acne scarring. 3 weeks in and there is a huge noticeable difference in my skin. Highly recommended.

I started suffering from hormonal acne 3 years that was getting worse this year. I was being left with red scars that were not healing. I came across this oil after finding facetheory after a search for a new face scrub after I found out my old favorite changed the formula to contain micro plastics. This oil is fabulous. I use it at night after cleansing and after the trixanomic acis serum. It feels very nourishing for my dry skin and I have only been left with 2 tiny red dots from my latest breakout 2 months ago that are almost completely faded. The rest of the scars have disappeared completely. Highly highly recommend.

I have always had acne scarring, and still get spots to this day leaving scars, nothing worked apart from using sunscreen, but I noticed sunscreen just stops it from getting darker rather than getting rid of the marks, googled "get rid of acne scarring oil" and the face theory retin C came up I have no idea what it's supposed to do I'm no good at skincare and haven't got a clue! I simply used a little of of this after my cleanser on my marks and then moisturizer ontop. No idea if Im using it right but so far I have noticed fading away! I no longer need a full coverage Foundation which has always been a must for me. So far it's great,l.

I have to admit I was sceptical at first but wow, after only a few days I started to notice a difference, others did also, and the healthy glow my skin seems to have now is just amazing. Very pleasantly surprised and would definitely recommend

Oh. My. God. This stuff is a miracle in a bottle… Zero irritation, I used it every day from the first use with no problem whatsoever, despite having sensitive skin. I’ve been using it at night on my face (to heal acne scars) and stomach to heal scarring from a hot water bottle) and it’s already made a big difference. It’s a little oily when you first apply but it does sink in. I actually seal mine in by applying the ceraquench cream on top. Bonus - you wake up with a lovely glow too! If you’re worried about trying a retinol product, this is the one to go far. Highly recommended.

Love love love this! Always hated my skin… Acne and acne scarring. Initially worried about using oil, but I really believe that I saw results after 3 days. I even get compliments! Would recommended for spotty skin!
